Baker’s Dozen 5k

13 PAX took advantage of an uncharacteristically cool June morning to undertake another journey to The Matrix.

The Thang

Quick mosey to the parking lot in front of school for an abbreviated COP: SSH X 15, LSS X 11. Too much running on the weinke, no time for standing around in a circle.

Exit the parking lot and head west on McKee, turn left on Knox, right on Helena Park, stop at the bottom of Karras Commons. 7s on Karras Commons Way starting with 1 burpee at the bottom, 6 jump squats at the top, working our way to 6 burpees at the bottom and 1 jump squat up top. Regroup and run back to the AO, stopping at the rock pile near the McKee Rd. sidewalk and futbol fields. Instructions were to partner up and choose one lifting rock per set of partners. Run to the track with your lifting rock in tow. YHC heard a few moans and groans about running with lifting rocks. Just wanted to give the PAX an opportunity to push themselves a bit harder than they were expecting.

Once at the track, P1 performs called exercise while P2 runs one lap. Flapjack until partners reach cumulative total reps for each exercise.

Round 1 – overhead press x 150

Round 2 – curl x 150

Round 3 – flutter press x 100

Return rocks to the rock pile, then mosey to the playground for 10 pull-ups, 20 derkins, 30 dips followed by one lap around the school. There were about 40 seconds on the clock after finishing this sequence, and the PAX were awarded that time as free play. During free play, YHC observed a few PAX in some sort of surfing/squatting maneuver on the bouncy bench (probably not the real name for that piece of equipment). Orange Whip did a few hundred one-fingered pull ups. Smokey with the strong take out in COT.

• We were blessed with an awesome morning today. A most welcome break from the heat and humidity.
• The goal of this workout was to break the three-mile mark. It’s BRR training season and all that, plus running conditions were excellent this morning. We totaled between 3.1 – 3.4 miles. Well done men!
• Strong efforts by all today, with the Larry Birds of the bunch being Orange Whip, LaRonda, and Square Root.
